Nice job. As one who has folded one from paper, and used that as my template to do one from $ (all with the green side showing), I know the effort Bekah put into this. I’ve been asked numerous times to make the $ version for people and I consistently refuse. It is a model that gave me nightmares in assembling the $ version and I vowed never to do another one.

I am most definitely not a modular folding kind of guy- so I was a bit surprised at watching her put this together in a few hours. For me, it would take forever, because I just can’t model this sort of thing in my head nor do I have the patience to fold dozens of little tiny identical pieces.

The dollar bill version would be interesting to see, but I’m not sure I’d want to tie up 30 (or 60!) dollars in an origami model 🙂 the novelty factor must be huge, though…

I, too, have ATTEMPTED to assemble the money version. I could intertwine three of the 3-D triangles together, but could never fit in the last two. It was incredibly frustrating and I don’t forsee trying it again anytime soon.
